    Yes but you’re missing the fact that some people with sever depression just can’t make their bodies go for a walk the same way someone with a severe cancer diagnosis might not be able to just make their body go for a walk.

    Depression fucks with your brain such that you dont think it makes sense to do something that is good for you, if it was that simple nobody would ever hurt themselves, but they have a disease that messes with their brains’ ability to think clearly.

      I get what you guys are saying, but at some point you got to do something. If depression makes you just sit around staring at a wall for 2 years, I get it. Explanation.

      If you do it for 10 years however, you’re really just saying “I can’t. I’m depressed.” Excuse.

        No at some point you dont got to anything, you can just die from your disease. Would you tell someone dying of cancer they should have just tried harder?

        Like why do you get a 2 year depression but you dont get a 10 year depression? What do you know about the disease that it makes sense to you to last two years but not ten years??
